Posse, Are You Ready? (Vol. II) - a 1979 - 1985 rub-a-dub mix by BMC

Late august this year I dropped my first rub-a-dub mix in a long time: "Posse, Are You Ready? Vol. I". As promised, when there would be enough interest, I'd drop a Vol. II soon. Well, here it is! Got great response to Vol. I that even went to the negative side with someone selling CD's of it on ebay (!!!, and ebay did nothing with my claims to remove it, ahhh, frustrating) and people requesting me to upload the tunes seperately for them to download (forget it, that is so not my intention with these mixes!!!!). Luckily, most response was just positivity on the vibes and the selection.

Vol. II has the exact same recipe as Vol. I: early 80s tunes by a whole variety of singers and deejays and no vocalist appears twice, all tracks taken from vinyl, so expect some crackle and pop here and there. Mix in the usual BMC style: no full tunes, one continuous 60 min. mix with some added soundsamples.

Tracks in order of appearance:Posse, Are You Ready? - Vol. II (in brackets the source of each track is given, where 7, 10 and 12 are single sizes)01) Sugar Minott - All Kind Of People (Black & White 7)

Yo star you should upload a high quality version of this to Mediafire or something so it can be downloaded... while you're at it you could do the same for Vol. 1 so I don't have to keep listening to my crappy Soundcloud rip lol.... Respect

I'm really glad I've came across this informative post, this really helped me out quite a bit, by answering all my questions properly, hopefully the site will grow bigger and more popular as ever it was. Keep up the good work and I'm sure I'll visit you up someday soon for more great articles. You may find great articles and music production tools at: http://www.lucidsamples.com by the way!

BMC's Reggae Blog

Welcome to my blog! I'm BMC, a music lover and preferably play the good old wax: vinyl 4 life! I use this blog primarily to post my latest reggae mixes, as an archive for tracklists of mixes I did in the past, pictures of records/sleeves I love and occassionally for further reggae related topics like reviews, videos, information on releases, live shows and more.

What I try to achieve with my mixes is to show listeners the lovely music that is out there, to make listeners enjoy themselves through the power of the music and last but not least to hopefully introduce listeners to artists, riddims, tunes, producers and / or labels that they otherwise might not have heard of and with that possibly a bit of extra exposure maybe even leading to people buying, visiting shows or at least following those involved more closely. I'm very pleased to have had numerous compliments and comments of appreciation from people in the business (artists, producers and label-owners from JA, UK and EU) encouraging this way of using their music for more exposure and as appreciation for their works! Thanks to all listeners for your support, but also to all included artists, producers, musicians and labels for the great music!
